The laptops introduce full touch capabilities alongside a PROLED XDR panel rated for up to 2,000 nits of peak HDR and SDR brightness. Customers can configure the machines with M5 Pro or M5 Max processors, with top-tier configurations reaching $4,499 for the 14.2-inch version and $4,799 for the 16.3-inch model.

The hardware overhaul cuts weight and restores the glowing Apple logo, according to The Verge. Alongside the high-end OLED models, Apple also updated the standard 14-inch MacBook Pro and introduced a new iMac starting at $1,499, both powered by the M6 processor. [2]
